Puliyabaazi Hindi Podcast पुलियाबाज़ी हिन्दी पॉडकास्ट

एक पेंशन का हमारे पॉपुलर कल्चर में बड़ा महत्व है। बुढ़ापे में पेंशन का आश्वासन एक बड़ा कारण है जिसकी वजह से हर सरकारी नौकरी के लिए आवेदकों की भीड़ उमड़ पड़ती है। तो पेन्शन - ये संकल्पना आख़िर शुरू कब से हुई? सरकार कम्पनियों पर पेन्शन देना बाध्य क्यों करती है? भारत में कितने प्रकार के पेन्शन है? आगे जाकर ये पेन्शन क्या रूप धारण कर सकते हैं? ये One Rank One Pension (OROP) है क्या? ऐसे कुछ सवालों की मदद से हमने पुलियाबाज़ी की अर्थशास्त्री रेणुका साने के साथ। रेणुका पेंशन फाइनेंस में महारथ रखती है। इस एपिसोड में उन्होंने सरकारी पेंशन प्रणाली का विस्तार में ब्यौरा दिया है।

The word “pension” is synonymous with old-age security. After the second world war, the scope and reach of this financial instrument have expanded all over the world. But does this mechanism make sense in the new economy? What are the pension schemes that the Government of India runs? Can the Indian government afford a scheme like One Rank One Pension (OROP)? In this episode, economist Renuka Sané (@resanering) discusses the economics of pensions in detail. Renuka is an Associate Professor at the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy and is an expert on India’s pension system.

आये दिन ऐसा लगता है सांप्रदायिक मन-मुटाव बढ़ता जा रहा है। हिन्दू-मुसलमान पुलियाबाज़ी सिर्फ बयानबाज़ी रह गयी है। तो इस बार हमने बात की लेखक और सम्पादक ग़ज़ाला वहाब (@ghazalawahab) से जिनकी नयी किताब Born a Muslim भारतीय इस्लाम पर रौशनी डालती है और कई मनघडंत धारणाओं को ख़ारिज करती है।

Tolerance between religions has been a defining value of Indianness. And yet, this sentiment has been shaken in recent years. WhatsApp groups are flooded with forwards spreading blatantly false narratives with an intent to communalize Indian society. So in this episode, we speak with author Ghazala Wahab about her latest book Born a Muslim. Ghazala discusses Indian Islam and busts many myths that have flourished because of declining contact between communities.

2. Influence of Islam on Indian Culture, book by Tara Chand

3. A History of the Arab Peoples, book by Albert Hourani

4. Ghazala’s Manthan talk on YouTube

5. Ep. 53: सीएए और एनआरसी: इंसानों का डिमॉनेटाईसेशन

१९९१ में भारत में एक सामाजिक और आर्थिक क्रांति आई। आर्थिक सुधारों ने 25 करोड़ भारतियों को गरीबी से निकाला और भारत को विश्व भर में एक नयी पहचान दी। इस क्रांति को आए पिछले महीने ३० साल हो गए। तो इसी विषय पर पुलियाबाज़ी करने लौट रही है अर्थशास्त्री श्रुति राजगोपालन (@srajagopalan)।

This July marked thirty years of India’s economic liberalization reforms. These reforms transformed India. The resultant growth in the economy is single-handedly responsible for the reduction in India’s poverty. So this Puliyabaazi is about life before 1991, why India chose the path it did after independence, and the reforms that remained unfinished in 1991. Joining us is Shruti Rajagopalan (@srajagopalan), Senior Research Fellow at the Mercatus Center. She and her colleagues have started The 1991 Project to document essays, data visualizations, oral histories, podcasts, and policy papers demystifying the Indian economy and the 1991 reforms.

5. Ep. 37: ये लिबरल आख़िर है कौन? -- Puliyabaazi with Amit Varma on liberalism and FA Hayek’s writings

Gender discrimination is all around us — at homes, workplaces, and in relationships. It starts before a child’s birth and doesn’t go away even in death rituals. And this holds true even in elite India. So, in this episode, we speak to Mahima Vashisht (@mahimavashisht), who is showing Indians the mirror, one story, and one meme at a time, on Womaning in India.

लैंगिक भेदभाव के बारे में हमारी आँखों पर एक पर्दा पड़ा रहता है. सर्वत्र होते हुए भी अक़्सर हम सब इसे अनदेखा करते है. इस एपिसोड में लेखिका महिमा वशिष्ट आँखों से पर्दा हटा कर कुछ कड़वे सच उजागर कर रही हैं.

Our governments roll out many laws and regulations. When these laws fail to have the desired effect, we either blame the implementation deficit or the citizens. But what if the problem was in the design of the law itself? Is there a way to design better laws? In the Puliyabaazi, we are joined by the Centre of Civil Society’s Prashant Narang (@law_et_al) and Jayana Bedi on how to measure the Quality of Indian Laws.

हम अक्सर सुनते है कि भारतीय नियम-क़ानून बहुत पेचीदा है। लेकिन इस पेचीदगी के मापदंड क्या है? हमारे कानूनों की गुणवत्ता कैसे परखी जाए? इसी विषय पर ये पुलियाबाज़ी सेंटर फॉर सिविल सोसाइटी के प्रशांत नारंग और जयना बेदी के साथ|

Most Indian languages share the same phonetic structure and yet have vastly different scripts, making communication across languages difficult. Moreover, each script has its own peculiarities steepening the learning curve for adults and children alike. To tackle this challenge, a team at IIT Madras designed a novel and technology-friendly Indic script — Bharati — that can be used to write in multiple Indian languages. In this Puliyabaazi, we speak to two members from the Bharati Team — Prof V Srinivasa Chakravarthy and Anubhooti Soni — about Indian languages, their similarities, and the need for a common script.

भारत की भिन्न-भिन्न भाषाओँ को एक चीज़ जोड़ती है - उनकी मूलभूत संरचना. इसके बावजूद हमारी भाषाओं की लिपियाँ कम ही मेल खाती है. इस वजह से एक दुसरे की भाषाएँ समझना और सीखना मुश्किल हो जाता है. इसी चुनौती को सुलझाने के लिए IIT मद्रास की एक टीम ने एक ऐसी लिपि का ईजाद किया है जिसके ज़रिए भारत की हर प्रमुख भाषा को लिखा-पढ़ा जा सकता है. इस पुलियाबाज़ी में चर्चा इसी दिलचस्प विषय पर.
